The occurrence of pharmaceuticals and other micropollutants in our water bodies is today wellknown as is the fact that most of these enter the environment via our wastewater treatmentplants (WWTPs). This is mainly due to inability of existing technologies to remove them from thewastewater stream. The South Baltic Sea (SBS) is under pressure from a number of stressorsincluding micropollutants such as pharmaceuticals, which is the background to the MORPHEUSproject (Model Areas for Removal of Pharmaceutical Substances in the South Baltic). Properwastewater management in WWTPs surrounding the SBS plays a crucial role in achieving agood water status and in the potential restoration of poor water resources. This report(Deliverable 5.1) aims at summarizing the status of existing technologies currently used in thewastewater sectors in a few selected WWTPs located in the coastal regions of Pomerania(Poland, PL), Skåne (Sweden, SE), Klaipeda (Lithuania, LT) and Mecklenburg (Germany, DE).In total 14 model WWTPs in Poland (4), Sweden (3), Lithuania (4) and Germany (3) werechosen.
